Description
In this episode for Fashion Month, we take a look at the origins of one of the most controversial pieces of women's clothing, the Corset. Tess evaluates it's complications in the fashion world since the 15th century to how it has evolved today, to a more sexualized statement piece. Interestingly enough, we go into the 60s/70s liberation movement and what was happening to trends around small waists, and then discuss the start of Shapewear with the brand Spanx, and the pros and cons of compressing our bodies with these materials. Detours include: Titanic, Victoria's Secret, buying your first thong, and always...Bravo. This is the Corset.
